The Documentary Resources

We gathered a mass of materials to inform the Project. Some are available in the various archives we visited, but some were donated by individuals and are unique. The original material - mainly the survey forms, photographs and exercise books which have been donated to us - has been deposited in the archives of the Institute of Education, 20 Bedford Way, London, WC1H 0AL, together with hard copies of the transcripts of the interviews, plus a digital copy of the sound file and digital copies of the photographs of school work as shown on this website.

The following list gives the interested researcher a flavour of what is in the Project Archive at the Institute of Education:-

Original survey forms

School materials donated

Digital photographs of school work loaned

Teachers' notes and booklets recording their lessons

Digital files of the interviews

Transcripts of all the interviews

Paperwork associated with organising the History in Education Project, including the oral history collection.
